"love you"...



Today, I have another necklace post. I'm not feeling confident about the outfit I'm wearing today. I was, until my daughter said how awful I looked in it. Aren't teenagers brilliant?!

This beautiful necklace was half price in Accessorize, The Arc Shopping Centre, Bury St Edmunds
.


It is just so pretty I can't stop looking at it.

Oh, I went back to my local garage today for the first time in a while. I used to go in there at least 3 times a week to top up with petrol. I've avoided it recently. You see, the last time I was in there, the assistant said her normal goodbyes, then as I walked out the door she called after me "love you". I stopped dead in my tracks, almost said it back (through habit) but managed to hold my tongue... and got into my car truly perplexed.

It was quite obviously a complete slip of the tongue, like when you call your teacher 'mum' or 'dad' at school (mortifying). Don't get me wrong, I am quite familiar with her but not that familiar. But it did make me smile :-)

I couldn't post today without mentioning how sad I am to hear the news that Patrick Swayze has passed away. "Nobody puts baby in a corner". RIP Patrick Swayze.

Total spent today: £6.

I was really sad about Patrick Swayze too. His diagnosis didn't seem that long ago; it must have been a very nasty cancer.

I like the necklace you're wearing; your daughter probably just doesn't yet appreciate the more vintage look.
